Gibson ES-165 Herb Ellis
Used! Just in on consignment!
Immaculate, Unplayed NOS (new old stock)
Hollowbody Archtop Electric Guitar
Used! Just in on consignment! Wow – You don’t come across things like this every day. This guitar was built in 1991 as an artist model (stamped “promotional – not for sale” on the back of the headstock). I just took it in on consignment from the family of the owner who had passed away. From what I understand he did not play guitar, but was in the Jazz record business, and I can only guess that he must have received this as part of some type of swap. Regardless, it has not been played since new – still has the protective plastic on the pickguard and does not show any signs of use. Even the included, original hard case is immaculate! Amazing for a 26 year old piece (heck – it’s already technically vintage). Like all our used / vintage gear this has been tested for functionality and priced to move. Sold as-is. What you see is what you get.
